Tennessee Personal Injury Law

There are many laws in Tennessee governing how personal injury cases are handled. These laws include statutes of limitations, which require that a personal injury lawsuit be filed within a certain amount of time, or else the right to recover is lost forever. You should consult with a skilled Personal Injury lawyer in Tennessee soon to ensure that you file in time.

You might also find it helpful to know a bit of the substantive law of personal injury in Tennessee.

In Tennessee, the law is that you must show that the defendant's conduct directly caused the harm you have suffered, in order for you to recover. You must also show, with very few exceptions, that the defendant acted with some form of fault, like intent or negligence.

If you have any questions about personal injury in Tennessee, you should contact an experienced Tennessee lawyer who practices Personal Injury as soon as possible.

Tennessee is part of the Southeastern region of the United States. It is one of the nation's major producers in areas like agriculture, electrical equipment, and transport equipment. Tennessee is also popular for its history of musical acts originating from the state, with Nashville being considered by many to be the center of recorded country music. Much of Tennessee's law is devoted towards regulation of these important industries.

The Tennessee Supreme Court is the state's court of last resort. Unlike other state supreme courts, the Tennessee Supreme Court meets in several locations (Knoxville, Jackson, and Nashville). In addition, the Tennessee Supreme Court has met in many other cities in connection with legal education projects for high schools. Tennessee's Supreme Court is the only one in the nation that appoints the state's Attorney General; in all other states, the appointment is made by election or by the state governor.

Many Tennessee laws and court cases have influenced national legal trends. For example, Baker v. Carr (1962) is a landmark U.S. Supreme Court case originating in Tennessee. The Baker decision established the doctrine of "one man, one vote". This doctrine helped to balance voting and election standards, especially for communities that may be underrepresented in elections.

Lawyers in Tennessee can help interpret the state's laws and regulations. Tennessee lawyers provide assistance with various legal issues and concerns. An attorney in Tennessee can also provide representation in court during trial.

05/13/2008I hired this Attorney after I spoke with him on the phone, on 10-24-05. Since then he has kept up with my medical records. He's very knowledgeable in this case. He specializes in Personal Injury cases. I would recommend him if you have a case that's a Personal Injury.

They were with me every step of the way with my case and provided comfort knowing that I was doing the right thing. I would choose them in a heartbeat and recommend their expertise to anyone seeking Legal assistance.
I am recommending them to my family and friends.

03/03/2015Five Star rating, nothing less. Joseph L. and his staff, including David F. Tibor, Karen Y. Cho, and others who worked on my case are true professionals in every sense of the word. I highly commend and recommend them. You can't do any better than winning your case in a jury trial. The jury's award to me ($604,000) was outstanding. I am so thankful to Joseph and his team. I would not hesitate to hire them again if ever needed. If you're looking for real professionals who have the experience, knowledge, and ability to win your case, look no further than JML law. I am a highly satisfied customer.

11/09/2011I contacted two other firms, who were closer to home, before I met with Mr. L. and his team. Mr. L. far surpassed my expectations. Their support, personal attention and legal expertise made me feel confident that my best interests were looked after. Before we even closed my case, I was already recommending them to colleagues. I now have JML on speed dial.

11/07/2011Mr. L. is no ordinary "Joe" and in my opinion restores long overdue dignity to his profession and I only wish I had hired him from the onset of my case. Mr. L. took the time to listen to every thing that I had to say (pertinent or otherwise) and was always very responsive. I was even shocked when he followed up with me on the weekends when he hadn't heard from me. Mr. L. is clearly very knowledgeable in employment law and never charged me a dime (he didn't even ask me pay him any money upfront) for his legal expertise. If you are in need of an employment law attorney, Joe is the only honest man for the job and I know from personal experience that he won't steer you wrong. Thank you can never adequately say enough for what he has given to me and I will always appreciate him and proud to call him my attorney.

10/20/2011It was very traumatic to loose my job, with a major bank, after fourteen years of loyal service without any type of severance package. I described my dilemma on this website and was immediately contacted by six different law firms. After meeting with two other lawyers, I hired Joseph L. to represent me in an age discrimination lawsuit. Mr. L., his associates and staff were all very helpful and understanding at all times. My case was recently settled through mediation and I feel totally vindicated both professionally and financially. I highly recommend that you hire Mr. L. if you need a superior lawyer to represent you.

08/21/2010Thanks to Atty. L. that I can now move on with my life. I was so stressed out because I was dealing with my situation without a family support but he and his staff were like a family to me. They gave me hope whenever I'm hopeless and they gave me the support and help I needed to overcome this obstacle in my life. Now, everything's over. =) Thank you very much - from the bottom of my heart. I would definitely recommend him to my friends/family/relatives.

01/12/2006I hate lawyers and I like jml so much!-pros*****Why? They saved my life-what¿s left of it. Because my last job drove me nuts- literally and many more things that I face mentally, physically leading to Congestive Heart Failure today even at 37. Well, not only did this firm make me feel safe, but they did not make me feel as crazy, as I was acting. Feeling trapped in my madness ptsd. I felt they truly believed my crazy but very true extra long story and patience and understanding was unlimited. I feel so bad it took so much time to pull it all out of me, for them to even understand what happened... I'm still running in circles.. But it¿s a stronger one now with these guys.

01/12/2006The only comment I have is that my Lawyer has not kept me updated with what is happening with my case. I spoke with him twice for about 5 minutes each, and no communications since that time. I don't know what is happening with the case at all. I would truly appreciate a note, fax, postcard to let me know that he is still working on my case.

04/20/2012My case did not come out as I thought it would. We tried to get what I felt I was entitled to,but we fell short. With that in mind, I would not change lawyers. The team of lawyers on my case always, returned phone calls, emails, and made sure I was OK. If you need and want people that really care, and most importantly listen then you should definitely hire this firm.

01/12/2006Mark B. is an excellent attorney. Always returned calls promptly. Answered all questions. Took care of getting me the medical attention the insurance company didn't. My case was settled in less than 1 year for much much more than the insurance company tried to offer me before I talked to an attorney. I talked to a couple of other attorneys before choosing one. I'm 100% sure I made the right choice!! :)
